Synopsis
Enjoy the ambiance of one of Sedona's most noted resorts as you discover two great American treasures - Sedona and the Grand Canyon. Surrounded by soaring red-rock buttes, lush green foliage and the vertical cliffs of glistening Oak Creek, Sedona may have the most spectacular setting of any city in America. Immerse yourself in the beauty of this spectacular setting and discover its human and natural history as you savor its mix of pioneer and artistic spirit. Wilderness areas adjacent to lodging offer opportunities for hiking and contemplation. 120 miles north of Phoenix; commercial shuttle available from Phoenix airport.
